In order to allow for social distancing tonight's School Board meeting has been moved to the Middle School Gym. Just come in the front doors by the Middle School Office. The meeting starts at 7:00 pm.
Don’t skip your child’s wellness check up!! Required vaccinations are extremely important for your child's health and the health of the community.
Measles, whooping cough, meningitis, etc are very contagious and young ones are at risk. Local medical offices are still seeing patients for immunizations and they are practicing safe measures for your protection. DELAYING vaccination could lead to these diseases making a comeback. Any student entering kindergarten, 8th grade, or 12th grade should especially review their immunization history to make sure they are up to date.

Here is a great resource for needed food during this shutdown.
Due to the statewide stay at home order announced this evening by Gov. Parsons there has been a change in the schedule to pick up the next batch of assignment packets. The packets will now be available for pick up tomorrow Saturday, April 4, from 9:00 am until 2:00 pm. Materials for elementary students can be picked up at the elementary building while middle school and high school materials will be available at the high school. In addition, products ordered from the detergent fundraiser can be picked up during this time as well.
Food Service (during closure)- Moving to Mass Delivery:
Starting Next Wednesday April 1st we will begin delivering all meals just once a week. So on Wednesday April 1st every child 18yrs old and under signed up to receive meals will receive (5) lunches and (5) breakfasts all on Wednesday. After next Wednesday the meals will only be delivered once weekly. You will not receive less meals than you are currently receiving, you will just receive them all at once. This move is being made for the safety of the staff. If you have any question please send myself or Travis Rogers (Transportation Director) and email.

Grandview Community,
I want to reach out to you and give you an important update on the COVID-19 situation and how it impacts our district. As you know, the Grandview staff is working diligently and remains committed to providing a learning environment that is focused on academic excellence in a safe environment while still working to meet the social and emotional needs of our students. With that in mind, we continue to adjust our plan as the COVID-19 crisis evolves.
Following the announcement of stay-at-home regulations for March 24, 2020 - April 23, 2020, from the Jefferson County Health Department and Jefferson County Executive’s Office, and in collaboration with other area school districts, Grandview will be extending our school closure through Friday, April 24th, with a hopeful return date of Monday, April 27, 2020. As April 27th approaches, we will re-evaluate and determine if we will be able to resume school on that date.
In addition to extending the school closure through Monday, April 27th, we will also be extending the cancelation of all school activities. We will also be keeping the campus closed to outside groups including all fields and gymnasiums. The track will remain open for walking but please practice social distancing.
The Grandview Meals delivery will continue to provide meals to anyone under 18 years old. The form is still available on the school website.
This action is being taken in an attempt to minimize health and safety risks in the Grandview School District community. Throughout the extended school closure, all district offices, and school buildings will be closed unless posted, and all district events, practices, and competitions that have been scheduled within and out of the district during this timeframe will be considered canceled until further notice.
Communications will be forthcoming concerning academics, including educational packet pick up and drop off.
Please take care of yourself, your family, and those around you and I encourage you to continue to adhere to the preventative measures as recommended by public health officials.
Grandview is an amazing community, we will get through this together. Please be the calm!
Respectfully,
Matt Zoph
Superintendent
